    I use something even better. I bought at the Dollar Store the mini ouchless ponytail bands. They fit perfectly around the bobbin.

    I seen them at the dollar tree and I may get some and try this. I think you get 750 per pack? I have done the tubing thing and it does work great too! The cost on both of them is awesome.

    I use these two. I found a whole bag of them at a yard sale for 10 cents. They work great

    The pony tail things do have one problem - you can't see the thread color very well. The clear might be a good idea if you like to find your color easily.
